What We Do
Trela Labs is an atypical stimulator of human imagination and creativity!
We help people, teams, and organizations imagine, innovate and create novelty.

Idea Fest
We provoke and lure Ideas through Inspiration, Expression and Renewal experiences. Each one is designed to activate new concepts, establish unusual connections, and inspire new thoughts and insights that might feel a little bizarre, at first!

Magic Teams
Teams are powerful-imagination creatures when there is trust, good dynamics and openness to originality, weirdness and some doses of "Wow, that's crazy!" We have designed atypical team experiences sparking the collective imagination.

Super Solo
Imagination is human. It thrives on energy, good mood, motivation and personal meaning. Sometimes, the ideas stop coming. Ouch! It happens. But we can help you to overcome the creative block and bring back your love for fishing for big ideas*!

idea generation: inspiration
Extremes Provocation
Experience was designed to inspire more daring and unusual ideas around Services. Our client felt their team's imagination was saturated and needed a "creative shock" provoking to move beyong the ordinary, increamental thinking. So Trela Labs designed the Extremes Provocation experience exposing the team to the weirdest, the extreme and unusual ideas on the market.
idea generation: exploration
Exploring
Synesthesia
We have created an immersive experience to introduce a new way of seeing and hearing the environment. The goal was to expose the team to Novelty in multiple ways, activating new intelligence centers in the brain, while avoiding the purely intellectual approaches. Moving away from one's expertise into an unknown area was another objective. People were highly engeged and some were able to compose music using objects and colors in their environment.

collective imagination: play
Unplug &
Play
There was a team working in a highly competitive environment, solo sharks for the most part. There was no trust. Minimal collaboration. Obviously, no sharing. But we helped start a little-big change!
IDEA GENERATION: RENEWAL
WhiteRoom
Ideas obey no orders! Insights come when you least expect! And Trela Labs has created a special experience to befriend ideas. Using research in Neuroscience, Arts and Psychology we designed the WhiteRoom.
